First make Vista backup. Here You've got all informations how to do it.

You have a folder with drivers & programs that may prove very helpful after XP downgrade. Copy folder C:\Swsetup to DVD Before formatting your hdd.

Update Your Bios to the latest version from here.

Now You need to slipstream Your Sata drivers (only x86 drivers) win nLite.

Here is guide how to do it and here are AMD SATA AHCI Controller for You. Just unrar this drivers with winrar.

Be sure also that You are using WinXP SP2 version. If you haven't got SP2 version here you can download this service pack

and here You have got guide how to slipstream this file with Your system again by nLite.

In this program You can even burn Your new XP cd with this driver.

Drivers for Your model:

First You must install .Net Framework  here (You need it for Catalyst software and  HP Quick Launch Buttons)

How to install HD 3410 Graphics/Video for XP

For this video graphic, ATI do NOT release XP drivers due to some agreement with HP that backed by Microsoft.

However, you may utilize Mobility Modder by driverheaven.net.

Download these files

download msxml6_x86.msi --> 1.5MB

2. Download Mobility Modder, here

Do the following steps

1. Please make sure you had install .Net Framework,

2. Download newest desktop drivers, here

    Run Catalyst Software Suite but cancel the installation once the driver is extracted.

3. Run Mobility Modder, browse to the driver in C:ATI/SUPPORT/xxxxx/ --> hit modify. Wait until driver is modified.

4. Wait until Install is finished and reboot

Please check first this link written by Joshua Wood and concentrate in it on problems that may appear when You will be installing sound card. I know then this is guide for dv5 but many hardware and drivers are the same for both models.

IDT High-Definition Audio CODEC Driver,

1. sp41698, vista driver, reported work in XP here

2. sp41693, vista driver, reported work in XP here

3. sp39671, vista driver, reported works in XP here or here

4. Find Your Vista audio driver on this DVD where You burned C:\Swsetup folder. It may also work under XP.

When You will install any audio driver with success check is Your sound working.

If there will be no sound after restart check this thread. There are informations how to solve this.

High-Definition Audio (HDA) Modem Installer and Driver here

ATI HDMI Audio here

HP Quick Launch Buttons here

Broadcom Wireless here

Bluetooth here

HP Connection Manager here

HP Wireless Assistant here

Realtek RTL8102E Family PCI-E Fast Ethernet here

ALPS Touchpad here

Realtek usb 2.0 Card reader here

If you had for 7 unknown devices (buttons drivers), here (New link)

Do manual installation

Go to device manager, right click unknown device,

Choose to update driver, No to connect,

Choose install from a list or specific location, Don't search, Have disk,

Browse to the location of machine.inf.

Do it for the rest of unknown devices.
